Giove

Cem Yilmaz

Giove discards the old, heavy, machine-looking aspect of cash registers and proposes a new design: simple, light, clean; it matches technology with the attitude for the contemoprary, which reflects Olivetti's design philosophy. Giove is designed according to user experience improvements. It offers customization through colorful covers, touch screen or keypad options, simple user interface.

Nesoi

Tianshu Shi, Chieh-Ting Hu
Yi-Ting Chiang
Federico Scafato

NESOI was born from one simple idea: to keep every element authentic to their own essence. In the design of NESOI all the elements are carefully composed and proportioned together in a rational way. Nothing more, nothing less. From the point of view of design language, on such a integrated device, overly exaggerated aesthetic would be a restraint. Clean, coherent and joyful are the keywords to make such architectural equilibrium expressive and to recall the classic image of Olivetti design identity.

Space

Andrea Violante
Catarina Madeira
Meeratchata Rujinarong

Space is a small cash register that offers a compact single shape for all the needs of the user. Designed for the operator and also for the customer, Space has an ergonomic and simple case, that facilitates all the processes.

The New Wave

Emanuale Merico
Yu-Ting Tseng
Lauren Elena Moore

The design is inspired by the shape of a wave, the tradition of Olivetti typewriters and the future of technology. The theme of a wave generates a fluid and smooth shape, that provides the users with a seamlessly light device that can be incorporated into any context and environment.
